McMike activated from IR. Milano put on waivers. Willy is a game time decision, possible flu. Carlson is out, injured.

Typical Caps. Come out flat, get outshot 6 or 7 - 1. Least they picked it up toward the end of the period. We're just so inept offensively.

Wins a win! Got the rust off, get Willy back and see what we got Friday! Gonna be a long road if we're relying of Sandin and TVR for our O though. lol


Leonard looked like he thought he was back at Boston College or somewhere. Needs less dangle and more north south.


LT pulled us though, as usual though!! Should be #1 star again tonight.

Caps came out on top so that's all that matters.  A win is a win.
